COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTIONThis NW style sour ale is a re-creation of a historic German beer style, spiced with coriander and sea salt to replicate the water in the town of Goslar where the beer originated.

Tart lactic aroma with salty, lemon and slight spice. Taste is wheaty, lemony, salty, and of sour. Fairly sour, maybe 4 of 10 but I would say this is slightly less sour than say Westbrook gose, maybe about the same, but definitely not over the top sour. It is balanced and full flavored, and feels like a very authentic gose. With how puckering some other cascade beers are I was thinking this one might be more sour, but still great. That being said this is one of the best gose I have had, with Westbrook maybe edging it out? Maybe a tie. But Westbrook is $12 a 6 pack vs $25 a bottle. So at a 3rd the cost Westbrook wins. I love cascade. My favorite brewery overall, but for the cost I will buy their more complex sours. The gose is a lighter, more session able beer and the cost is prohibitive here. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
